Abstract

A leader is someone who provides direction and inspiration to the people with whom they work. For better or for worse, the development of leadership competencies (e.g. rational decision making or the ability to listen) in the context of behavior-analytic autism services is not all that different from being thrown into the deep end of the pool and being told to swim. While that might look effective, it is also potentially traumatizing for potential young leaders and runs the risk of having the least effective or efficient behaviors reinforced. Effective leadership entails the application of research-based practices to direct decision-making, communication, and management practices in support of the mission of the organization (in behavior analytic autism services- improved student and adult outcomes). This workshop will provide an overview of research-based practices in effective leadership and how they might best be merged into effective practice on a day-to-day basis.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this event, participants should be able to:

  • Select the definitions of a minimum of three basic components of effective leadership.
  • Identify at least three barriers to effective leadership relevant to the delivery of behavior-analytic autism services.
  • Identify leadership’s short-term pros and long-term cons as a “cult of personality.”
